"We've taken cognizance of the viral video which is showing a fight between passengers on a Thai Airways flight to Kolkata. Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) has sought a detailed report from the concerned authority. Further action to be taken," Zulfiquar Hasan, DG, Bureau of Civil Aviation Security, said.
In the beginning of the video, two men are seen arguing. One of the men can be heard saying “haath neeche kar [put your hands down]”. Within no time, the argument turned into a full-fledged brawl.
As one of the men takes off his spectacles and starts hitting the other person, the former’s friends join him in the attack. The other passenger, however, doesn’t attempt to hit back and merely tries to shield himself from the blows.
The other passengers on the flight call for calm. After sometime a flight attendant is successful in breaking up the fight.
